TMZ is reporting that King Mo reached out to Hogan and Sting for advice on his upcoming debut, because he doesn't want to disappoint any of the wrestling fans when he steps in the ring.

Mo also told TMZ that several other MMA figthers have contacted him with interest in crossing over as well.

Good move Mo. Cause when I want to learn how to wrestle, the first person I'd contact is Hulk Hogan....

Hulk: I'm a little busy with this whole TNA thing, brother, but my man Garrett, he's the future of this business, dude. He'll show you the ropes.

Nah, the first person you contact is actually Mike Quackenbush. Screw Hogan, what does he know about wrestling?

Wrestling is all about bumping, selling, throwing punches, chops and all the basic stuff. Everything else is fluff. I firmly believe there can be a wrestling match that is LEGENDARY with just those moves I mentioned. All you need is story. Not a single suicide dive.

P.S: Correction. Hogan can't teach him about selling. Everything else is good though.

By basic stuff, do you mean slams and suplexes and things like that? Cause I imagine a match with nothing but chops and punches would get really boring, really fast, no matter who was in it...then again, Meltzer gave Samoa Joe vs. Kenta Kobashi 5 stars, and it was nothing but chops and clotheslines.

This basically. I was actually going to write something similar to this. I think a good example to a match like that was Sting vs Hogan at BFG 2011.

Off topic: Im proud to say i just rep you your 666

What's so different about 2012? Wrestling is still operating on the same ancient concept. Big egos collide over a belt, an argument or both. Feud ends in a match that tells a story which reflects the feel of what happened in the previous weeks and gives those big egos a representation in the ring. At least that's what is supposed to happen but TNA and WWE have wonderful ways of fucking that up.

Just because some indy douchebags figured m0vezzz is better than telling a story and cutting great promos doesn't mean the business has changed. Watch Shawn Michaels vs 'Taker (either of them), or 'Taker vs HHH (the latest ones) and you'll know exactly what I mean. Sure they have their big spots but 90% of the match is basic moves + story. Every year regardless of how crazy some matches get, the only one that feels rather special is the annual 'Taker match. There's something different about it. Something right. Punk can go and smark his ass off all he wants, hit elbow drops, flying this, flying that, Bryan can do all hit all of his dumb moves and technical sequences but NOTHING beats a good story in the ring.

Why is 'Taker a legend? Is it because of his moves? Nope. What about Shawn? Rock? Austin? Sting? Hogan? Should I go on?

I have no idea why bother discussing this with Raider, lol. What does Hogan know about wrestling anyhow?

The REAL story here is SEVERAL MMA fighters are interested in TNA which tells me they have started a potential trend that can create some serious attention. All It takes is for one domino to fall for others to catch interest.

I wouldn't want a lot of MMA fighters crossing over unless it more like an invasion type thing.

What about an MMA Division?

[Killer Queen]

What does Hogan know about wrestling?, before even answering that, you have to consider what wrestling is. Hmm, what is professional wrestling?, what do they do in professional wrestling?, hmm
